Hello everyone!

Could you help me guys?  
My Filebeat doesn’t attach Kubernetes metadata. I don’t know why, it looks very strange because log contain normal Kubernetes activity without any errors.

My setup:  
Kubernetes 1.11.2 (containerd v1.1.2)  
Filebeat 6.4.0

Here is my Filebeat config: [https://paste.ofcode.org/BBKrhyAjFcsT3S29EbUByS](https://paste.ofcode.org/BBKrhyAjFcsT3S29EbUByS)  
Here is Filebeat log: [https://paste.ofcode.org/uBkntBA39yKzPv8nLbLdZT](https://paste.ofcode.org/uBkntBA39yKzPv8nLbLdZT)

Hi @maligos,

Configuration looks right at a first glance, can you please post the full log? I'm interested in the part where Kubernetes starts watching for Pod events to construct the metadata table.

Best regards

OMG! I've just fixed it! I removed "host" section from "add\_kubernetes\_metadata" and now it is working fine!  
New day - clear mind! 😃
